The Mirandol railway viaduct in Chasserades. Stevenson stayed in the same lodgings as the
men surveying the railway line in 1878, but it was not built until 24 years later.

Imagine how the people felt when this great construction was put through their quiet and tiny village!

Dropping down into Le Bleymard

The black and red sign bottom right is the most important.... a Carrefour store that is open
reasonable hours, and right opposite the Hotel de Remise

 

 

The classic roof style with heavy stone slates called "lauzes"

(The difference between lauzes and laves is that laves are made of basaltic, volcanic rock, while lauzes are made of limestone or other sedimentary rock)
